- During the Extended Warranty Period, the Service provides product repair and/or one-time replacement services (one-time replacement service is only offered where the Product cannot be repaired or is Beyond Economic Repair (BER)), which must be carried out in Hong Kong. If a failure occurred to the Product within the Extended Warranty Period, you may enjoy an unlimited number of repair services with a total repair value not exceeding 125% of the Product’s recommended retail price ("Maximum Repair Value"). Repair services and/or one-time replacement services are only provided for inherent mechanical and electronic defects and/or failures of the Product and shall not exceed the scope of the Manufacturer’s Warranty, and any repair service costs exceeding the Maximum Repair Value shall be borne by you separately. The Company and bolttech shall not be liable for such additional costs.
- If the failure of the Product under repair is not due to inherent mechanical and electronic defects and/or failures of the Product, the inspection fee shall be deducted from your Maximum Repair Value but the Company or bolttech shall not be responsible for repairing the Product nor bear the cost of the actual repair. However, if you decide to proceed with any suggested repair after the inspection, you shall bear the repair cost separately (such repair cost will not be deducted from your Maximum Repair Value). The Company and bolttech will not be responsible for any costs incurred beyond the inspection.
- “DOA” or “dead on arrival” refers to the Product (i) being purchased and not taken immediately from a designated retail store of the Company, and which is later delivered to you; (ii) upon delivery is found to be completely inoperative; and (iii) is immediately returned to the Manufacturer for replacement. The Service shall continue to cover the replacement product you subsequently obtain, provided that you notify the Company and bolttech in writing of the details of the replacement product within 30 days from the date of your receipt of the replacement product. The replacement product shall then become the Product covered under the Extended Warranty you purchased from the Company.
- In the event that the Product is Beyond Economic Repair (BER) (meaning that the cost of repair exceeds 85% of the Product's recommended retail price) or where there is unavailability of spare parts for repair, you shall be entitled to one (1) replacement of the Product. If during the Extended Warranty Period your Maximum Repair Value is insufficient to cover the purchase price of a replacement new product, you shall be responsible for paying the difference between the purchase price of the replacement new product and your Maximum Repair Value. If there is remaining balance of Maximum Repair Value after replacement, there will be no refund of the price difference. Upon replacement of the new product, the Service shall automatically terminate.
